The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 834 - 795: Settle the Situation

Hua Yudi felt a jolt of panic upon hearing Xiao Muli’s words, cursing internally that this could be a case of lifting a rock only to drop it on one’s own foot. It seemed like they had provoked someone they shouldn’t have.

Although Hua Yudi and his son had gone to great lengths to investigate Xiao Muli, who really was Xiao Muli? He wouldn’t so easily lay all his cards out in the open. Take Xiao Muli’s wife, Situ Xin, for example; her identity. What Hua Yudi and his son had uncovered was fake, a fabrication by Xiao Muli himself.

This had misled Hua Yudi and his son in their understanding of Xiao Muli’s new wife. That’s why they thought about pushing Hua Qianqian at Xiao Muli, to be with him.

"This is what you said. I’ve been holding back a lot of anger this time. If you don’t help me vent it, you know, I have my own ways to do so. But by then, if you, the Xiao Family, suffer any loss that you shouldn’t have, you can’t blame me." Situ Xin realized early on that Hua Yudi had a business collaboration with Xiao Muli.

"Hey, you woman, do you realize we have a collaboration with the Xiao Family? If you offend me and cause the Xiao Family to cancel our collaboration, you will have a hard time explaining it to the rest of your family." Hua Qianqian never expected that the man she had finally taken a fancy to would turn out to be this woman who was opposing her, heavily pregnant no less. She was very unhappy about it.

Hua Yudi heard his sister’s words and tried to stop her, but it was too late. This girl had been spoiled rotten by their family, with no ability to read the room. Their collaboration with the Xiao Family wasn’t the Xiao Family begging them but the other way around. If this arms deal didn’t go through, the predicament their family would face was something his sister, Hua Qianqian, could not even imagine. Seeing Xiao Muli’s darkening expression, Hua Yudi hurried out to scold his sister Hua Qianqian: "Qianqian, what are you talking about? Apologize immediately to Patriarch Xiao and his wife." After reprimanding his sister, Hua Yudi looked up at Xiao Muli and Situ Xin, wearing an entirely different expression: "Patriarch Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, my apologies, my sister is young and ignorant. Please be magnanimous and forgive us."

"Tch, young? She looks much older than our lady," Mo Qian couldn’t stand Hua Qianqian, who not only competed with her lady for clothes but also coveted her lady’s man. Really, this woman should take a good look in the mirror at herself; does she even match up?

"Hey, you servant, since when is it your turn to speak? And another thing, brother, why should I apologize? I did nothing wrong. What I said was the truth. Humph, if that woman doesn’t apologize to me, this collaboration is cancelled." Hua Qianqian failed to notice the very ugly look in her brother Hua Yudi’s eyes, glaring as if he wished he could send her straight home. "Furthermore, I’ll tell you straight up, not only do I fancy the dress you’re holding, but I also fancy your man. So you better watch out." Hua Qianqian’s tone was as brazen as it could get.

Upon hearing this, Situ Xin gave a cold laugh and said to Mo Qian, "Mo Qian, slap her face. Hit her a few more times, till she has a pig’s head. I want to see how with a face like that, she’s going to compete with me for a man." Situ Xin’s laughter was fueled by raging fury.

Under normal circumstances, Situ Xin would have acted herself. But she was mindful of the child she was carrying, so she let Mo Qian do it instead.

And Mo Qian had been waiting for just this instruction from Situ Xin. She had long wanted to lay her hands on Hua Qianqian. Although Mo Qian wasn’t a talent cultivated by Situ Xin, the people Xiao Muli had around him were none of them inept.

The moment Situ Xin made her will clear, Hua Yudi and their bodyguards were on alert, trying to grab Mo Qian. But no matter how fast they were, they were not quicker than Situ Xin’s Silver Needle. The moment they made a move, Situ Xin’s Silver Needle had already flown out. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Those bodyguards who tried to intercept Mo Qian were instantly immobilized. Hua Qianqian, watching Mo Qian approaching, shrieked in fear, "You, you dare lay a hand on me, I’ll have my brother shoot you dead. Brother, save me!"

"Heh, I’m waiting," Mo Qian ignored Hua Qianqian’s threats, mockingly looking at her frightened expression, and struck Hua Qianqian’s cheek. Mo Qian showed no mercy with her slaps; after four of them, Hua Qianqian’s face was swollen tremendously. Her previous beauty was nowhere to be seen, looking just like a pig’s head.
